Co-doped rod-like ZnO particles with nominal Co doping concentration of 1 at% were synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized by X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, photoluminescence and superconducting quantum interference device. The results show that the as-synthesized samples are pure hexagonal wurtzite structure without metallic Co or other secondary phases and display rod-like shape with smooth surface. The room temperature PL spectrum of the Co-doped rod-like ZnO particles exhibits a strong blue emission at 440 nm, a shoulder violet emission at 410 nm and a weak green emission centered at 550 nm. The magnetization measurements reveal that the Co-doped rod-like ZnO particles show ferromagnetic behavior at room temperature. The saturation magnetization and coercive field are 0.0125 emu/g and 45 Oe, respectively.

Ni-doped rod-like ZnO particles with doping concentration of 1 at.% were synthesized at 200°C by hydrothermal method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID). The results show that the as-synthesized samples are pure hexagonal wurtzite structure without metallic Ni or other secondary phases and display rod-like shape with smooth surface. The magnetization measurements reveal that the Ni-doped rod-like ZnO particles show ferromagnetic behavior at room temperature. The saturation magnetization and coercive field are 0.0046 emu/g and 15 Oe, respectively.

Co -doped ZnO rod arrays were fabricated on zinc foils by a hydrothermal method. X-ray diffraction results indicate that the samples have wurtzite crystalline structure without metallic Co or other secondary phases detected. The nanorod arrays exhibit room-temperature ferromagnetic behavior for different Co concentration. The influence of Co on the magnetic properties of ZnO was studied by the first-principles calculations. The exchange interaction between local spin-polarized electrons and conductive electrons is proposed as a cause of the room-temperature ferromagnetism.

Objective: The influence of Manganese (Mn2+) and Cobalt (Co2+) ions doping on the optical and magnetic properties of ZnO nanoparticles was studied. Methods: Nanoparticle samples of type ZnO, Zn0.97Mn0.03O, Zn0.96Mn0.03Co0.01O, Zn0.95Mn0.03 Co0.02O, Zn0.93Mn0.03Co0.04O, and Zn0.91Mn0.03Co0.06O were synthesized using the wet chemical coprecipitation method. Results: X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) patterns revealed that the prepared samples exhibited a single phase of hexagonal wurtzite structure without any existence of secondary phases. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images clarified that Co doping at high concentrations has the ability to alter the morphologies of the samples from spherical shaped nanoparticles (NPS) to nanorods (NRs) shaped particles. The different vibrational modes of the prepared samples were analyzed through Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) measurements. The optical characteristics and structural defects of the samples were studied through Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. PL results clarified that Mn2+ and Co2+ doping quenched the recombination of electron-hole pairs and enhanced the number of point defects relative to the undoped ZnO sample. Magnetic measurements were carried out at room temperature using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). (Mn, Co) co-doped ZnO samples exhibited a ferromagnetic behavior coupled with paramagnetic and weak diamagnetic contributions. Conclusion: Mn2+ and Co2+ doping enhanced the room temperature Ferromagnetic (RTFM) behavior of ZnO. In addition, the signature for antiferromagnetic ordering between the Co ions was revealed. Moreover, a strong correlation between the magnetic and optical behavior of the (Mn, Co) co-doped ZnO was analyzed.

Cr-doped rod-like ZnO particles with nominal 3 at% doping concentration were synthesized by hydrothermal method. The structural and optical properties of the sample were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and photoluminescence (PL). The results show that the as-synthesized product is of hexagonal wurtzite structure without metallic Cr or other secondary phases and the morphology of the ZnO particles is rod shaped. The room-temperature PL spectrum of the Cr-doped rod-like ZnO particles exhibits a strong blue emission at 440nm and two weak emission bands centered at 410nm and 565nm, respectively.

Abstract In the present research work, crystallographic, optical, molecular, morphological and magnetic properties of Zn1-xCuxO (ZnCu) and Zn1-x-yCeyCuxO (ZnCeCu) nanoparticles have been investigated. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) coated ZnCu and ZnCeCu nanoparticles have been synthesized by chemical sol-gel method and thoroughly studied using various characterization techniques. X-ray diffraction pattern indicates the wurtzite structure of the synthesized ZnCu and ZnCeCu particles. Transmission electron microscopy analysis shows that the synthesized ZnCu and ZnCeCu particles are of spherical shape, having average sizes of 27 nm and 23 nm, respectively. The incorporation of Cu and Ce in the ZnO lattice has been confirmed through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Room temperature photoluminescence spectra of the ZnO doped with Cu and co-doped Ce display two emission bands, predominant ultra-violet near-band edge emission at 409.9 nm (3 eV) and a weak green-yellow emission at 432.65 nm (2.27 eV). Room temperature magnetic study confirms the diamagnetic behavior of ZnCu and ferromagnetic behavior of ZnCeCu.

Co-doped ZnO nanoparticles were fabricated by an electrodeposition method. The XPS results show Co ions have doped into the ZnO crystal lattices successfully. The as-grown sample has no ferromagnetism at room temperature. But after an ammine plasma treatment the room temperature ferromagnetism were detected on Co0.04Zn0.96O nanoparticles. The Hall measurement reveals after the treatment the resistivity increase by three orders of magnitude. Although the aspect conductivity is n type, some holes generated by N doping play an important role to induce the ferromagnetic properties for Co doped ZnO sample.
